Keeping a plague diary is definitely one of the weirder things I've done lately. I meant to start journaling more often lately, checking in with everyone, but I'm historian enough to want to become the "ooh this is interesting" I want to see in the future world. That's so morbid.

The roads are unusually quiet but not disturbingly so. Or they weren't last night. Stopped by the Sav-Mor to pick up an embarrassingly large number of apples and some chicken I didn't have to defrost, since those shelves were full, and an even more embarrassing amount of candy. Circus Peanuts (basically solidified marshmallow fluff dyed bright orange), orange slices (gelatin, sugar water, and orange flavor and color that was made off the wistful imagination of an orange), and cadbury eggs (chocolate shell of an inferior kind to that they have in europe and a DELIGHTFUL sugary creamy filling dyed to look like an egg yolk). Its popular to hate on all of these so I feel comfortable grabbing a lot of bags because no one else will buy them. Or something. Candy, I will buy you and love you. And devour you. Om nom nom.

Today was surprisingly productive as far as house things go. I got writing work done, almost the full day's work. I got a Patreon post out for the first time in a few weeks, I got dinner made for the boy since I had marked leftovers for mine. Got a bit of cleaning done. Going in two hours later might work out really well.

...at what point does the number of apples become embarrassing?

[kittydesade]

Ten pounds' worth for one person?

Okay it was mildly embarrassing for me, someone who was more known for eating apples longer than "right before the pandemic" might be less awkward about it.

I feel like people would at least assume you were juicing them or something. I have had people ask me what I was doing with large bags of lemons before, however.

Anyway, hope you are successful in keeping doctors away.

Thank you! They're solid apples, and I have an excellent throwing arm.

I'm not sure it's possible to have too many apples.

[kittydesade]

So many apples do I have. I have enough apples for a couple of weeks, even.

You can always make applesauce or cobbler or pie if you get tired of eating them as is.
